34. With her face covered by her garment out of shame in the public assembly, she wept upon reaching her husband, uttering the words, 'O noble husband!'
विस्मयाच्च प्रहर्षाच्च स्नेहाच्च परिदेवता ।
उदैक्षत मुखं भर्तुः सौम्यं सौम्यतरानना ॥३५॥
35. vismayācca praharṣācca snehācca paridevatā ,
udaikṣata mukhaṃ bhartuḥ saumyaṃ saumyatarānanā.
35. vismayāt ca praharṣāt ca snehāt ca paridevatā
udaikṣata mukham bhartuḥ saumyam saumyatarānanā
35. And with a face even more serene herself, she, who had been lamenting, gazed at her husband's gentle face, driven by wonder, joy, and affection.
अथ समपनुदन्मनःक्लमं सा सुचिरमदृष्टमुदीक्ष्य वै प्रियस्य ।
वदनमुदितपूर्णचन्द्रकान्तं विमलशशाङ्कनिभानना तदासीत् ॥३६॥
36. atha samapanudanmanaḥklamaṃ sā suciramadṛṣṭamudīkṣya vai priyasya ,

36. atha samapanudan manaḥklamam sā

36. Then, upon seeing her beloved's face - which she had not seen for a very long time, and which was charming like the risen full moon - she, whose own face resembled a pure moon, dispelled the weariness of her mind and became radiant at that moment.
